Daniel Haston has been named the Import New Car Sales Manager at Herb Easley Motors. He is in charge of the Volkswagen and Mazda sales. Haston brings more than 10 years of automotive sales experience to his new position.

He has worked at several dealerships in this area prior to joining Herb Easley Motors four months ago. “I am real excited about this opportunity. Volkswagen and Mazda are quality car lines with a history of excellent gas mileage, innovation, and providing economical transportation. Everyone considering the purchase of a new vehicle should look at the choices and value we offer in Volkswagen and Mazda.”

Originally from Frederick, Okla., Haston came to Wichita Falls to attend Midwestern State University. While at MSU he began his automotive sales career. He and his wife, Katie, have two children: a daughter, Sydney, 5, and a son, Drew, 3.

He said he enjoys working for Herb Easley Motors because “this place has a family-oriented style of doing business. We have an excellent management staff that is concerned about each customer as well as providing a good workplace for the employees.”

As for why he loves selling cars, Haston noted, “I like helping people who are in need of a vehicle. These days, with our present economy, it is often a challenge to create a way to put a buyer into a new vehicle. It is a great feeling when we’ve helped someone fulfill their transportation needs.”

As the import sales manager, Haston will work with salesmen Mike Luttrell and Nathan Morris. He is excited because both Volkswagen and Mazda offer an array of very economical vehicles that get especially good gas mileage and demonstrate the quality of German engineering.

“With Volkswagen, we get a lot of repeat customers because once they drive a Volkswagen; they never want to drive anything else. Volkswagen offers 11 different models. They have some of the most innovative vehicles on the road today.

“Likewise, Mazda’s lineup is totally redesigned for 2010. they have a new look with more aerodynamic styling and an emphasis on more sporty vehicles.”

The Import sales office at Herb Easley Motors is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Stop by and let Haston or his sales staff show you the value and quality of a new Volkswagen or Mazda.
